Lets start this year out right, with a Beer of the Bike ride!  Until I have a chance to plan all this coming year’s rides formally, we’ll just start with a good ole fashioned cold weather bar hop.  Join us this Sat, Jan 3rd at the steps of the Art Museum at 10am.  We’ll hit up 2 or 3  newly opened bars and brewpubs in the city.  This will be an easy ride for all skill levels.  We might even do a little roundabout route, just to work up an appetite, er, um a drinketite?  A beeretite?

Sorry this is such a delayed recap!  It was a cold and long ride, but 6 of us made the trek out to Norristown.  Capone’s did not disappoint, as we were rewarded with an amazing beer list.  They were recovering from a special event the day before, and many of the special beers were still available.  Many of the them were new to me, including Allagash Les Deux Brasseurs, Boris the Crusher oatmeal imperial stout, Jolly Pumpkin La Parcela, Ottos Ottonator, and more.  Sadly the Ommegang Rougewas out.  The real problem of the day was that, even with sample flights, there were too many good beers on the menu.  This spot was definitely worth the ride out there!  Pics can be found here:  http://www.flickr.com/groups/beerofthebike/pool/

For our December ride, we might be having it on Jan 3rd due to the holidays.  The destination is still up in the air.  Any requests?
